Troubleshooting

[X] I have verified that BlizzMove is up to date.
[X] I have tried to reproduce the bug with no other addons loaded.

Describe the bug.

BlizzMove: The frame you just moved (CollectionsJournal) is probably in a broken state, possibly because of other addons. Copy the text from this popup window, and report it to the addon author.

Steps to reproduce.

When im using Soulshape journal it stops moving when i use the blizzmove plugin it is tainting aswell and the blizzmove error window pops up (everything disappears except the background on the slightest fraction of a second holding the mousebutton down and moving so happens all the time when trying to just select something in it) ... i know its not made first party but maybe you have an idea how to fix it since it is not happening for the author and also only for some of my chars ... i renamed the wtf folder changed all console variables marked red in advancedinterfaceoptions to their described default value manually renamed wtf folder again then moved all addons out of the interface folder reinstalled soulshape journal blizz move and the plugin cleared all caches and temps i could find restarted my pc and that didnt fix it so id say it is a non numeric console variable or at least no boolean i guess i could reset the whole console over and over find the one by testing each and everyone on their own from my config file but it would take forever and also if its one managing closed tutorials across interfaces only openable next to their specific location in the gameworld or something it would be really annoying to fully have it reset to default so maybe this is something that can be solved quickly with a slight change in the code but i have no experience in lua so im really counting on you having an idea where this comes from :(

Expected behavior.

Moving and not tainting.

Errors


From wow itself this:

[string "=[C]"]: in function `error'
[string "@Interface/AddOns/BlizzMove/BlizzMove.lua"]:456: in function <Interface/AddOns/BlizzMove/BlizzMove.lua:430>
[string "@Interface/AddOns/BlizzMove/BlizzMove.lua"]:693: in function <Interface/AddOns/BlizzMove/BlizzMove.lua:676>
[string "=(tail call)"]: ?

And from the debug only this: 
Bad anchor connections for "CollectionsJournal":
empty

Tho when i install mountjournalenhanced (not causing any other or additional problems) i get additionally this text:

"MountJournalIcon" is outside anchor family, but referenced by "MountJournal.MountDisplay.InfoButton.25edf7b8910" (created in "Interface/AddOns/Blizzard_Collections/Blizzard_MountCollection.xml:393", and "UnknownFile:0" respectively)

duplicate of #104

hi, I'm actually the author of the soulshape journal plugin, and a maintainer for blizzmove, so it is kind of "made first party" 🙂

I'm sorry to say though, that we're not really sure how to help you further.. we have heard of similar issues, happening every now and then to some people (though like you, often only on 1 character)

personally, I've never experienced this issue, which makes it very very hard to debug what's causing it..

We added an error with some debugging output, to try to find the issue automagically, but as you can see, the output is empty in your specific situation.

all I know, is that sometimes, for some people, resetting cvars has helped them

if you wish to dive into the cvars specifically, we have 2 debug commands that can help, if you compare the output between a character for who it works, and one for who it's broken: /bmdumpChangedCVars gives a list of all cvars that are changed from the default, as a list of /run SetCvar() commands /bmdumpDebugInfo 1 gives a list of ALL cvars, in json format (/bmdumpDebugInfo 0 will filter to only cvars that have been changed from the default)
